I added this to ensure that we're not dealing with FAMs in sub-structures. I need to work with @rapidsna's work to make sure that what they do is what this attribute will do. It's not really a perfect check, but I removed the code in CodeGen that handles FAMs in substructs. So I think we can table this discussion if this patch goes on.
